When he returned home, Rong Yan didn’t even notice the guards winking at one another behind him. He felt that he had to face Ning Xiaoxiao’s feelings for him.
Did he hate it? Of course not.
In the past, many noble ladies had expressed their goodwill to him—after all, he had a mother who was highly favored. However, he felt bored and nauseated when facing those people.
Then… did he like her?
Rong Yan pulled the blanket up to cover his face. How could that be?!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis dilemma lasted for a sleepless night.
Unfortunately, the person who caused him to lose sleep had a good sleep and got up energetically to cook again.
The rice fields after the seedlings were planted could not be left unattended. Ning Fengnian always took the trouble to observe the depth of the water. He could not let the field go without water, nor could he over-irrigate it. At the same time, he had to ensure that no seedlings were washed down and damaged during irrigation. Insects and weeds had to be dealt with in time. If any seedlings were accidentally destroyed, they had to be replanted in time.
Every rice seedling condensed the hard work of the grower. This was a preciousness that could not be felt by scattering seeds into space. Every time she saw the vast greenery when she delivered food, Xiaoxiao could not help but smile brightly.
When Rong Yan occasionally accompanied her, he would see the other villagers wiping the sweat off their foreheads and holding their sore waists. However, they were always smiling when they looked at the green rice fields.
He asked, “Why are they still so happy when they’re so tired?”
Xiaoxiao said, “Because today’s work can be exchanged for another harvest, and the future harvest can be exchanged for a rich life. Food is the priority of the people, so in a sense, these fields are the farmers’ sky.”
“Don’t you think farming is very powerful? Look, be it high-ranking officials, nobles, generals, or soldiers, everyone has to eat. That’s why it’s not unreasonable for farmers to feed the world.”
Rong Yan was thinking about how he had caught a glimpse of the unusual layers of guards at the dam in Luo Prefecture.
At night, he tossed and turned, attracting Yun Yi’s attention.
“Master, what’s wrong?”
Rong Yan sighed. “Find someone to tell Shen Congjun that the dam is in disrepair.”
Yun Yi was confused. “Master, didn’t you plan to stay out of other people’s business and ask County Magistrate Shen to escort us back to the capital after confirming that he is trustworthy?”
Rong Yan recalled the smiling faces he saw during the day and said seriously, “I’ve changed my mind.”
Glancing at the puzzled Yun Yi, Rong Yan said, “If Shen Congjun knows about this but doesn’t do anything, how can I believe that he won’t join Prefect Yan?”
Although he had no intention of fighting for that position, he did not plan to not take his life seriously. Moreover—
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe had once felt that Great Xia’s empire had nothing to do with him, and the people in this empire naturally had nothing to do with him. However, Ning Xiaoxiao’s words today changed his mind.
He ate the rice planted by the commoners and cooked by Ning Xiaoxiao. He seemed to be unable to only care about his own stability and ignore the calamities that were about to happen.
“The people’s sky can’t collapse.”
This sentence was said very softly, but Yun Yi, who had sharp ears and eyes, did not miss it. His actions of tidying up the bed were still smooth, but his expression became serious.
“Understood.”
In the following days, the two families indeed began to work together, and their diets’ level increased exponentially.
As freeloaders, the ingredients that Rong Yan’s guards brought couldn’t be too bad, right? Even if it was bad, his master wouldn’t be used to it, so they started eating chicken, duck, and pork.
The neighbors had prepared such sumptuous ingredients. It was not appropriate for the Ning Family to take advantage of them and make do with porridge, rice, and steamed buns, right? Hence, even if their hearts ached for the money, they insisted on going to the meat stall.
Although there might only be one or two pieces of sweet and sour pork ribs for each person, they still had meat every meal. After eating their fill every meal, the Ning Family felt that they walked with the wind in their face. The Yun Guards swung their swords and were as light as swallows. Both parties’ mouths and stomachs were greatly satisfied. They were smiling every day from the moment they woke up.
